Allowing All Characters when loading Diagram Nodes from Controllers

[Ryan Obbink]

Hi there,

Here are the specs that are currently being used.

VS 2013

Syncfusion 13.1.0.21

ASP.Net MVC 5

.Net Framework 4.5.1

'bower_components/modernizr/modernizr.js',

'bower_components/jquery-workflow/jquery.js',

'bower_components/bootstrap/dist/js/bootstrap.js',

'bower_components/respond-minmax/dest/respond.src.js',

'bower_components/bootstrap3-dialog/dist/js/bootstrap-dialog.js',

'bower_components/jcarousellite/jcarousellite.js',

'bower_components/jquery-ui/jquery-ui.js',

'bower_components/jsrender/jsrender.js',

'bower_components/jquery-validation/dist/jquery.validate.js',

'bower_components/jquery-validation/dist/additional-methods.js',

'bower_components/jquery-validation-unobtrusive/jquery.validate.unobtrusive.js',

'bower_components/jquery.easing/js/jquery.easing.js',

'bower_components/jquery.easing/js/jquery.easing.compatibility.js',

'Scripts/ej/jquery.globalize.js'

We are currently regression testing our system, and I am trying to get our Syncfusion diagram to load with the following characters without issue.  

1. 0123456789 ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz~`!@#$%^&*()_-+={[}]|\:;"'<,>.?/£±§]*$#
2. [""]
   

Right now I am trying to the number 2 string [""].

We are loading the Shape node from the controller as follows with Json Encoding:

Label.Name = "[\"\"]"

Label.Text = "[\"\"]"

FlowShape.Name = "[\"\"]"

In the view, when the following statement runs:

@Html.EJ().Diagram("Diagram", ViewData["DiagramModel"] as WebAppFast.Controls.Syncfusion.Diagramming.SfDiagramProperties)

we get the following error:

So, the question is, how do we format the data sending into the ViewData in the controller to have it render correctly in the view.  I'm assuming the render should be in a Json format as sent in or unicode, but that is just a wild guess.

Let me know what you find out.

Thanks.

Hi Ryan

Thanks for using Syncfusion products.

We suggest you to set label’s text as  string.Empty or “”  instead of "[\"\"]" to resolve your reported issue.  However node’s name should not be set as an empty.

Please let us know if any concerns.
